Glenda Rose Shepherd Sparrow
May 18, 1919 — August 23, 2008
Glenda Rose Shepherd Sparrow died August 23, 2008 at Legacy House in Logan, Utah.
She was reunited with her loving husband and all of her siblings and parents.
Glenda was born in Clarkston, Utah on May 18, 1919 to Charles William and Mary Emmaline Godfrey Shepherd. She married her sweetheart Sydney Joseph Sparrow on Dec. 23, 1936 in the Logan Temple for time and all eternity. Sid passed away on Jan. 29, 1998. They lived in Dayton and Clifton, Idaho during their early married years where Glenda worked at the High School cafeteria. Later they moved to North Logan, Utah where she worked at Baugh Motel, Logan Regional Hospital, and U.S.U. Bookstore.
Glenda was a very devoted member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
She served in many church callings over the years, with her favorite being able to work in the Logan Temple with her husband for 11 years. They both loved the Temple dearly.
Full of faith and fortitude she always supported her family and friends.
Crocheting was one of her many talents. All of her children, grandchildren, and many great grandchildren have received some of her prized pieces that had taken many hours to make.
Glenda was an avid fan of the Utah Jazz.
She is survived by one daughter, Maurine (Lee) Hendrickson of Preston, Idaho; three sons, Jay (Kayleen) of North Logan, Dennis (Mary) of Colorado Springs, Colo. currently serving a mission in Taiwan, Curtis (Linda) of Smithfield; 13 grandchildren, 24 great-grandchildren.
She was proceeded in death by a still-born son; her parents; two brothers, Clarence and Elvin Shepherd; and two sisters, Erma Shepherd and Ruby Ralphs.
Funeral services will be held at 11 :00 a.m. Friday, August 29 at the North Logan 2nd Ward Chapel, 1105 E. 2100 N. There will be a viewing from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Thursday evening at the Allen Mortuary, 420 E. 1800 N. North Logan and at the church prior to the services on Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. Interment will be at the Clarkston Cemetery.
The family would like to give special thanks to the staff at Pioneer Valley Lodge, Heart & Hands, Alpine Hospice, especially Amy Godfrey, Joyce Larson and Legacy House for all the special care and love showed toward our Mother.
